An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Klondike Annie, the 1936 Raoul Walsh Alaska/California interracial romance romantic gambling crime murder melodrama ("Nome was never like this... Till Mae hit town!"; "From a play by Mae West and a story by Marion Morgan and George B. Dowell"; a really wild story where Mae West is an entertainer in San Francisco's Chinatown, and she is being blackmailed into having an affair by the owner of the club she works at, who is Asian, and she kills him and goes on the run, and meets a missionary who dies, and West takes her place and pretends to be a missionary and goes to Alaska, and she also is romanced by Victor McLaglen, and there is much more to the story!) starring Mae West (in the title role), Victor McLaglen, Philip Reed, Helen Jerome Eddy, Harry Beresford, Harold Huber, and Tetsu Komai. Note that while this was a movie made a couple years after the Production Code was in place, it broke many of its rules, and it is a mystery how it got made. It also has much anti-Asian racism, and that likely accounts for why the movie is little seen in recent years. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned an example of this half-sheet! Also note that because this poster is slightly fragile, we don't want to roll the poster prior to mailing, because we believe that rolling it could cause it to become creased or cause other damage that would lessen its condition and we will sent it in a large flat package. If you specifically request it, we will roll this poster, but the new buyer will have to accept responsibility if there is any damage caused by rolling it. Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It had some tears around the edges and someone put tape on the back of those, with tiny paper loss in the top left corner and very slight trimming near the middle of the right border. It has some smudges and scuffs scattered throughout, including some in the large face of Miss West. Learn More about condition grades
